what we want is the right to amend the rules n right which is now i | arbitrarily denied us if as i anticipate the previous ques j tion on mr dalzell's motion is lost i ! shall offer a resolution naming a commit ] tee to revise the rules and report to uie i house on a subsequent day that motion may be amended and there may be some debate but if it prevails the whole ques tion will be solved the house will have reasserted its right to amend the rules and we will proceed with the business be fore l(s the question of the speakership they eon sider/dennilely settled by the caucus last night
